When to get lunch/a snack on this trip?

In a few weeks I will be flying from DC to Buffalo, and then have a 2 hour drive to where I will be meeting up with my family on vacation. This trip will have me leaving the airport in DC around 10am and arriving at my final destination around 2pm if there are no delays.

Given the nature of the logistics, my lunch options are a) to bring food with me from DC, b) pick something up in the Regan airport prior to the flight, c) pick up something in the Buffalo airport (there's no option to stop somewhere outside the airport).

Getting from my apartment to the Regan airport in DC in July combined with the flight I think will be harsh on a meal I bring from home (though I am planning on bringing a few snacks). I'm not necessarily sure if there's any food available in the Regan airport that's necessarily worth getting compared to what I can find in the Buffalo airport (i.e. there's no Prete a Manger in Regan). None of the airport dine-in options in Buffalo will really be an option for me either.

Whatever decision I make, this will clearly not be the best meal of my life and that's ok. But any thoughts on what option would be preferable I'd appreciated.
